Abstract

See full text

A pipeline termination arrangement to be mounted to a pipeline end section to support a pipeline hub of the pipeline end section during and after a subsea connection of the pipeline hub to a spool piece hub fixed to a spool piece termination structure is provided. The pipeline termination arrangement includes a landing structure for supporting the spool piece termination structure; a connection porch fixed to the landing structure; and a support structure which is fixed to the pipeline end section and provided with a guide frame. The guide frame slidably supports the landing structure so as to allow the landing structure and the connection porch to slide along the guide frame from a first position, in which the connection porch is located in front of and at a distance from the pipeline hub, to a second position, in which the connection porch is in contact with the pipeline hub.
